Content Linked to PSEL — The PSEL Leadership Reflection and Growth Tool will be an integral part of the program. The goals of each session will be tightly aligned to the specific actions that leaders need to take in order to meet the standards. School and district teams will engage in conversations about how key leadership actions can impact school and district goals.

New Regional Locations — Recognizing the time involved in travel to the sessions, regional cohorts will now be offered at Bergen County Community College, Rowan College @Gloucester County, Brick Twp. PD Center, and FEA Conference Center

School and District Teams Are Encouraged — In an effort to highlight the importance of teacher leadership, we are encouraging both school and district leadership teams to attend, including superintendents, assistant superintendents, principals, supervisors, directors, assistant superintendents, and teacher leaders.

Half-Day Sessions — In an effort to address the issue of juggling busy schedules, the NJLA sessions will be held from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.

Reduced Price — $450 for the three courses
